Quote
It's saying no. That's your first hint that something's alive. It says no. That's how you know a baby is starting to turn into a person. They run around saying no all day, throwing their aliveness at everything to see what it'll stick to. You can't say no if you don't have desires and opinions and wants of your own. You wouldn't even want to. No is the heart of thinking.

Quote
But no one ever said yes to make sex consensual. You took hints from body language, from the way two people came together. Why...didn't a shake of the head or a hand pushing hard against a chest speak just as loudly? Why did you have to actually say the word no for it to be rape?

Quote
The absolute negative, the ultimate saying of no to the world, when it is just too late. And always the subtle conviction that if you had said No a moment earlier, it would none of it have happened. But the saying of no comes too late by a little. You are always a little too late in saying it.

Stop saying no to yourself and yes to everyone else. If they can't handle your no's , they surely don't deserve your yes's.

Quote
When constantly making promises to others that you can't keep, you eventually lose credibility. It's okay to say no. You don't have to say yes to everything. Stop promising your life away to everyone else and forgetting about yourself along the way.

Quote
The word "NO" is such a powerful thing. It can either bring you a soul-satisfying peace or cause your enemies to rage against you in an all-out war. But, when you're grounded in God, and all that's good, I've come to realize as long as you remain true to those inspirations, which caused such power to slip from your lips into the atmosphere and ears of all those who must hear, in peace or war, in the end, you will come out victorious.
